CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

how many of you are taking the year off of school and who is going in to school right after High school. I am going right into collage......and I start august the 29th

I duel enrolled in college this year and now I'm graduated. I wanna finish up school as soon as I can so I can hurry up and get my stuiped degree AND BE DONE WITH SCHOOL FOREVER!!! HA HA HA HA... oh sorry about that, I get a little excited about when I think of no school....

Same here.

taking a year off can be good if you don't know what to do, but for me I would probably enjoy the freedom too much so it's better if I don't know what I'm missing and just throw my self in the grips of school stress...... dang it, now I'm depressed

Heh, you seem to indeed share similarities with a certain tiny snow fairy. And here I'm trying to get in the most college time possible. ^_^

Wait! The US finishes the school year half way through the year? I'm confuzzled.

weeeelllll, if Australia goes like japan you finish up about the time we have spring break. Or thats what I heard. we usually have about a three *glorious* month break from june to end of augest. YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and yes, in some respects I am like a certain little snow fairy that will not be mentioned for many reasons, none of which I can think of at this moment. He he....

Australia has longer holidays during Christmas time - we usually get out mid December and go back there very late Janruary or very early February. Our school year goes from Feb to mid December (obviously with term holidays inbetween). We have 4 terms in a year. How different is it elsewhere?

Germany gets out about the time America does, but, since they are a slave for school, have a shorter break then we do. I have no idea what the reast of europe does

When I left school, I thought I would be taking a year off and getting a job...
*glances at uni exams and papers*

... Like that ever happened

Hrmmm, I am wentering my last year of college... my college finishes about April 29 and we usually all get home by May 1 or 2.. then we don't go back till late Aug-Early Sept... yeah, but I am an RA this year so I get to go back a week earlier.. WooT

In Canada there is a four term sistem and we start school in september and we finish at the end of June.

In America, the typical school term is from late August/early September to mid-December, and then mid-January to late May, with two one-week breaks each semester/term.

Myself, I'm now a sophomore in college (sort of), but I went straight to college. Now I'm mid-transfer, and I'll start on August 18 at my new seminary. Sadly, I'm a freshman...again. Only 12 of my 29 hours transferred. =(

I graduated from college last summer, and this fall I will be enrolling in a Lutheran seminary. Thanks to some snafus with registration and entrance exams, I'm now in the middle of an unintentional year off.

Putting off my education was very frustrating, but this year has turned out to be a real blessing. The whole year's been a steady streak of learning and earning - earning some savings to help with school and learning computer skills, martial arts, foreign languages, Bible knowledge, as well as more spiritual things about faith and the world and the why people are what they are.

On top of that, if I would have been in school, I probably wouldn't have discovered CAA. So while I'm glad that my path to full time church work will finally be moving forward again, I can hardly say that it was a year ill spent.

Directly to college. I can't say I have a terrible amount of time to do otherwise, nor would it be financially feasible. After my first degree, I may make an exception for a year-long discipleship program I am considering.

I'm going to start college right away this year and just get it over with.

Nevertheless, congrats on all the new-graduates. It's a fun time in your life.

Enjoy college/uni! It's fun! If you're not, it's still fun!

Since I'm in Australia I graduated last year, and entered uni this year. Currently am under exam period for this semester, so better get studying, or something.

starting out at the bottom of the food chain *again* is annoying. You don't get much respect, no good classes, no good dorm rooms.... *sniff*, sorry, pent up emotion

I am entering my third year of college in the Fall. Rather than living in the dorms, I will be living off-grounds with 5 other guys (all good friends). It should be awesome. After that, I will have to get a Master's Degree since I can't really do anything with nothing more than degrees in English and Philosophy .

I'm going to a local college for my 1st year, then will transfer to Cedarville U for Computer Engineering (but i've already got like 15 credits from dual enrolling)

I am going to BCIT for my Joinery.....It is a 5 year corse but at the end I will have my Journeyman Ticket.......And I will be able to work any were arownd the world.

You don't get much respect, no good classes, no good dorm rooms....

Oh, I dunno about that. My dorm room is pretty sweet.

You live in a dorm sweet man.

Went directly to Uni. I knew if I took a break off I would have forgotten most of what I learn in highschool. Especially the math parts. :p Unfortantely I did lived in the dorm last year. I lived in a 60 year old all male dormitory, couldn't afford the new dorms.... 1000 smacker-roos extra..... Anyway wasn't so bad. People where friendly too each other and it had a certain charm. I even had a giant dead roach watch dog that watched my room when I was gone. *The roach was stuck between pipe and the wall*
